The incredible shrinking dollar has caused Americans to seek out vacations in the off season. It's actually the best time to go to Europe. Here you'll get travel planning help you can actually use for those off-season months. While the dollar is currently strengthening, many tourists have discovered that they actually prefer the shoulder season, the warmer spring and fall months.

European Weather in General

"Moderation in all things" pretty much describes the weather of western Europe, due to the unimpeded flow of winds off the Atlantic Ocean. The lack of mountains along the coast of western Europe allows mild, moist air to sweep across the continent. You'd expect this to bring more rain than it does in most places.

Enjoy exploring the climate of Europe--and we hope it helps with your European travel planning.
